Portal 2

Portal 2: Richmond upon Thames (8 October 2011). This is the second in my portal series of photographic/literary works.There were doors all around the hall, but they
were all locked; and when Alice had been all the way down one side and up the
other, trying every door, she walked sadly down the middle, wondering how she
was ever to get out again.Suddenly she came upon a little three-legged
table, all made of solid glass: there was nothing on it but a tiny golden key,
and Alice’s first idea was that this might belong to one of the doors of the
hall; but, alas! either the locks were too large, or the key was too small, but
at any rate it would not open any of them. However, on the second time round, she came upon a low curtain she had not noticed before, and behind it was a little door about fifteen inches high:
she tried the little golden key in the lock, and to her great delight it fitted!Alice opened the door and found that it led into a small
passage, not much larger than a rat-hold: she knelt down and looked along the
passage into the loveliest garden you ever saw.
